[Integers]
Assigns the PTP domain number. A domain is grouping of PTP clocks that synchronise to each other on a network.
This provides a way of implementing independent synchronisation of PTP clocks on a shared network
Act. Time Source 08 10
None
PTP
SNTP
Displays the active time synchronisation source being used.
‘Free Running’ means the IED is not synchronised with any normal time-server, including IRIG-B, PTP or SNTP. The IED relies solely on its
IRIG-B Status 08 11
Card Failed
Signal Healthy
No Signal
Displays the status of IRIG-B
PTP Status 08 12
Illegal Master
Valid master
IEC61850 or DNP3.0 over Ethernet versions only. Displays the status of PTP time synchronisation
No Master Found = No PTP master can be found, the IED has not received a valid ‘Announce’ message.
Illegal Master = Master clock is not valid, typically this will occur when the clock is not using the correct epoch
Valid Master = At least valid one master clock is available
SNTP Status 08 13
Trying server 1
Trying server 2
Server 1 OK
Server 2 OK
No response
No valid clock
IEC61850 or DNP3.0 over Ethernet versions only. Displays information about the SNTP time synchronization status
LocalTime Enable 08 20 Flexible
Fixed
Flexible
Setting to turn on/off local time adjustments.
Disabled - No local time zone will be maintained. Time synchronization from any interface will be used to directly set the master clock and all
displayed (or read) times on all interfaces will be based on the master clock with no adjustment.
Fixed - A local time zone adjustment can be defined using the LocalTime offset setting and all interfaces will use local time except SNTP time
synchronization and IEC 61850 timestamps.
Flexible - A local time zone adjustment can be defined using the LocalTime offset setting and each interface can be assigned to the UTC zone
or local time zone with the exception of the local interfaces which will always be in the local time zone and IEC 61850/SNTP which will always
